NATION IN BRIEF : ARIZONA : Plea Entered in 1976 Murder of Reporter
A state prison inmate pleaded innocent in Phoenix to a renewed murder charge in the 1976 car-bomb slaying of an investigative reporter for the Arizona Republic. James Robison, 67, of Chandler, Ariz., was convicted in 1977 of killing Don Bolles, but the conviction was reversed on appeal. Robison remained in prison on an unrelated conviction. There are indications that Phoenix attorney Neal Roberts is a potential target of a state grand jury investigating a possible conspiracy to obstruct earlier investigations of the Bolles case.
